The World of Sholom Aleichem^' - - Wonderful and Worthwhile Theatre
"Only once In a generation do you get entertainment such as this ..."
So wrote Brooks Atkinspn (New York Times) In his enthusiastic review which welcomed the open¬ ing of "Thc World of Sholom Aleichem" tn New York, -where this exciting trilogy of Jewiah plays ran   to   full   houses   for   43   weeks!
This very same production, cre¬ ated by Howard Da Sllva, will be given   in   Columbus   by    the   out-
.standing Broadway cast which will come here directly from its St. Louis triumph. It could be booked here for only one evening - next Wednesday, at the Jewish Center.
Featured in this production aro Herschel Bernard! in his role of "Mcndelo tho Bookseller" *ho also plays the father in "The . High School" and the prosecuting angel in "Bontscho Schweig"); George Tyno 'outstanding as tho teacher in    "A   Tale    of    Cholm");    Marie
Andrews, Fritzi Burr, Gilbert Green, Jack Banning - all veterans of a long list of Broadway hits and Hollywood  films.
"The World of Sholom AlolOhom" brings to the auditorium stage tho lovable people und quaint places which livv forever in tho stories of tho famous Jewish writer. In vivid pictures It dramatizes his iovo for tho ''little people" among the Jews of eastern Europe, re¬ flects his wisdom and humor and tolerant understanding, moving you to laughter and to tears. It Is un- forgottablo ontorialnment and it Is Jewish art at its very best, in word and music, to bo treasured forever.
